Worst Condition Consoles You've Ever Picked Up...

Post by christoph »

Picked this up the other day.. one of the worst I've seen.

The guy I bought it from said that he placed his SNES next to a heater and played for about 30 minutes when he noticed it melting...

It still works perfectly too.. lol

I mean I've seen or picked up consoles that are smashed and broken - but this is in unique bad condition.

Piss yellow, hair in every crevice, chips, breaks, cracks, and of course melted/warped plastic

Dear God, my heart weeps for that poor console.

Clean it, please, for the love of all that is holy!

In grade 10 or 11, my friend brought a PS1 to school with no power cord and gave it to me for free. It was the dirtiest console I've ever received and it was full of dog hair. And just last year, someone gave me a yellowed super Nintendo with stickers all over it and the power/reset buttons were colored in black permanent marker and there was some stuff written on the front too.
